Find the area of the triangle formed by ...

Find the area of the triangle formed by the lines `y-x=0,x+y=0`and `x-k=0`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Equation of line 1,`L_1->y-x = 0=> x= y->(1)`
Equation of line 2,`L_2->x+y = 0=> x = -y->(2)`
Equation of line 3,`L_3->x-k = 0=> x = k->(3)`
Now, if we draw these lines, it will form a triangle with vertices, `(0,0),(k,k),(k,-k)`.
Please refer to video for the diagram.
Now, from the diagram, we can see that,
Base of triangle `=2k`
Altitude of triangle ` = k`
